Is this the best place for good Mexican food in Ramona?

Yes.

Does the kitchen cater?

Yes, they do! All catering orders need to be placed at least 5 days in advance, and they're reasonably priced. They even offer a full-service buffet for parties of 100+ people.

Yeah Great Food, but super slow service. I guess that's why it takes so long 😊

Doesnt seem like a question, but ok. Not sure of the complaint though. It is not a taco shop with a drive thru. It is not a full restaurant though either, but somewhere in between and we have never waited more than about 10 min. What is super slow to you?

Been eating here for over 30 years. Probably the most authentic, well prepared Mexican food in San Diego County. Prices are reasonable & service is fast & friendly. The dining room can get very crowded so we usually order carry-out. Their shredded beef is the best I've had anywhere. Their carne asada is leaner than any other place in the county.

Great family owned and operated restaurant. It's a small place but they do a good job at getting your food out quickly. I wish they had beer on tap but they don't. Everything I have ever gotten from there has been really good. I love their super tacos. As far as I know this is the only Mexican food place in Ramona that makes albondigas. It's good too.

The food here is fantastic- the service leaves a lot to be desired. I phoned in a to go order of 2 burritos and an order of chips and salsa. The lady on the phone clarified that the burritos each came with chips, and did I want an extra order of chips and salsa, and I said yes, because I know that each burrito comes with like 6 chips. So when I picked up the order I asked for salsa verse, and she said there were 3 in the bag- so I asked for 2 more. You would think I asked for the blood of her first born! I offered to pay for the extra salsa, but she preferred to just give me a hard time. So I get home and we sit down to dinner-- no side of chips- only the little 6 chip bags that came with each burrito. So just as the stingy salsa woman predicted, I didn't need as much as I asked for. I did pay for the extra chips- just didn't get them.Lesson learned: only go for dine in, and only during the day when the nice young man is working.

Order at the counter, then sit. Wait is not bad. The people are great. I will be back. Ordered the carne asada, very good. Runs like a family owned business, which means it gets mine. Muchas Gracias!!

Food was okay. Not the best but anything Mexican is always better than a fast food burger. My cheese enchilada was not hot or melted. 3 kinds of salsa none of which stood out. Taco was great. Hubby didn't like his shrimp.

I celebrated my PhD today in this delicious restaurant. Well we enjoyed a cool evening and the restaurant was undoubtedly one of the reasons for this fruitful meeting. The crew collaborated in a pleasant manner, the meals were appetizing and my guests were extremely joyful. We shall absolutely visit again for more celebrations. Thank you very much.
